tips and information
• Ice cubes stored too long may develop an odd flavour.
Remove the ice container and discard the ice cubes. When
replacing the tray, ensure that the wire signal arm (see diagram
bottom left) sits within the ice cube container. The ice maker
will then start producing ice.
• Occasionally shake the ice container to keep ice separated.
• After you take delivery of the refrigerator, keep the ice maker
switch in the "OFF" position until the refrigerator is connected
to the water supply. The switch should also be kept in the
"OFF" position whenever the water supply is turned off.
caution
If the dispensing paddle is pushed for more than
4 minutes, the dispenser motor may overload and stop.
The overload protector will reset automatically after 3 or 4
minutes.
• If a large quantity of ice is needed at one time, it is best to
remove cubes directly from the ice cube container
• When the ice maker is operating, it is normal to hear
the sound of:
– the motor running.
– ice dropping into the ice container.
– the water valve opening or closing.
– ice loosening in the tray.
– running water.
Cleaning the ice dispenser
Clean the dispenser and ice container at regular intervals,
particularly before you take a vacation or move, also clean the
dispenser if it sticks.
To clean the dispenser:
1. Switch the ice maker switch to the "OFF" position.
2. Remove the ice container by lifting it up and
out. Empty and carefully clean the container with
mild detergent. Rinse carefully ensuring no traces
of detergent remain. Do not use harsh or abrasive
cleaners. Allow the ice container to dry completely
before replacing it in the freezer.
3. Remove ice chips from the shelf and chute that support the ice
container; clean these areas.
4. Replace the ice container. Ensure the wire arm sits within the
ice cube container. (see diagram below)
5. Turn the ice maker switch back to the "ON" position.

warning
Do not use the ice chute as a handle when removing or
replacing the ice storage bin. Do not put fingers up ice
chute. Surfaces there may be sharp.
caution
When removing or replacing the ice bin do not rotate the
auger in the ice bin. If the auger is accidentally turned, you
must realign the auger by turning it in
90° turns until the ice bin fits into place with the
drive mechanism
auger
Remove and empty the ice storage bin if:
1. An extended power failure (one hour or longer) causes ice
cubes in the ice storage bin to melt and freeze together and
jam the dispenser mechanism.
2. If the ice dispenser is not used frequently, ice cubes will freeze
together in the bin and jam the dispenser mechanism. If this
happens remove the ice storage bin and shake it to loosen the
cubes.
caution
NEVER use an ice pick or similar sharp instrument to break
up the ice. This could damage the ice storage bin and
dispenser mechanism.
